"Among the Kikuyu of Kenya it was believed that owls were harbingers of death. If one saw an owl or heard its hoot, someone was going to die. In general, owls are viewed as harbingers of bad luck, ill health, or death. The belief is widespread even today."

Originally posted by Zenwolf Ya know, I'm surprised you and Beni aren't gunning for her to be alive at the end of all this given you 2 obsess over her.

I mean you really think she's gonna die? It's Disney and she's a big fan favorite, you'll forgive me if I think they lack any balls to do so given where it's all coming from.

I have nothing against her dying, sure I'll be upset but frankly? She is going to die at some point, she has to. As it stands I'm finding the build up to this suitably poetic and will take it graciously.

And frankly it would be anti-climatic if she didn't given the various indications.

Good, that's how it should be.

But I don't see how it removes tension. She's barely even present during the show and even if she wasn't in the show, would you really be at the edge of your seat contemplating if the Inquisitors will finally murk Kanan and Ezra or someone else from the Ghost? And Ahsoka's presence during the finale indisputably raises tension.

Come on now.I have nothing against her dying, sure I'll be upset but frankly? She is going to die at some point, she has to. As it stands I'm finding the build up to this suitably poetic and will take it graciously.

Well actually if she dies, only you will be suprised, and we will be telling you how you were thusly informed.

It says right there, the owl can be viewed as bad luck, ill health or death. Doesn't mean specifically only death.

I was meaning the surprise factor for you, if she lives, not that if she dies.

But I don't see how it removes tension. She's barely even present during the show and even if she wasn't in the show, would you really be at the edge of your seat contemplating if the Inquisitors will finally murk Kanan and Ezra or someone else from the Ghost?

She doesn't really need to be present. if anything her not being the focus of the show makes the sort of situation where she can show up to end any fight more jarring. It only raises tension because of Maul and Vader being present, only one of which even has a remote possibility of dying. There's only a few ways it can turn out without removing the illusion that anyone can challenge Ahsoka. Vader can't die, and has to be the unstoppable threat only Luke can face, otherwise the OT makes no sense. There's really no tension there at all. for the record, things like this are why I didn't like the vast majority of TCW plots involving Obi-Wan/Anakin and Dooku, because there was already a preset outcome.

They said its like Empire Strikes Back. The Rebels have already had their base destroyed. It will literally be revealed to Ezra that Vader is Anakin causing him to reject the Dark Side. MAYBE Ahsoka dies in a Gandalf/ Obi-Wan 'fly you fools, this opponent is beyond any of you' moment. but I doubt it. I think she lives and then dies in Rogue One. That'd be a badass last stand for her.
